maglev, a recent but legitimate word for a train which moves using magnetic levitation

moshav, imported from Hebrew and roughly synonymous to kibbutz

shiv, slang for a knife used as a weapon; rarely spelled "chiv"

spiv, British slang for a flashy dresser "who lives by his wits without regular employment"; evolved from "spiff"

There are no words in the English language that end in the letter V although there are several like grave, rave, have, save, pave,....you can add some of your own words here that end in the V sound. There are several Russian words, particular names that end in V such as Romanov, Chekhov, Molotov as in Molotov cocktail, Karamazov, Gorbachev, Kirov. You are not specific as to what language you are referring to and I am also wondering if anybody gave you this assignment or if you are just trying to have some fun.

there are not many words that end in V

spiv - (black marketeer) is one and there are many words ending with v which are either a short form or an abbreviation
like NAV, LAV, DIV, GOV,DEV, CHIV
then there are names like moshav, Kalashnikov,Gustav

13,

English language?

I really can't think of any...plenty ending with "VE", but just "V"...tough...

Lotsa Russian...like Makarov (a semi-auto handgun)...

Ooohh..."shiv"...an improvised, bladed weapon...that count?

Methinks it's legit...http://education.yahoo.com/reference/dictionary/entry/shiv
